Twelve Apostles & The Great Ocean Road, Australia

Victoria's "Great Ocean Road" encompasses a vast breath of coastline taking up much of the south-west of the state. All along the windy road motorists are spoilt for choice when it comes to great coastal views with the most popular attractions being "The Twelve Apostles" and other various formations such as London Bridge and Loch Ard Gorge. Many of the rock formations have sunk into the sea over the years with the famous "12" now being several less than a dozen. Never-the-less the spectacular scenery is a paradise for photographers.

An anchor is all that remains of the Marie Gabrielle which was shipwrecked many years ago, but now offers a fun short beach walk for those willing to brave the tides, while places such as Port Fairy offer historic charm and windswept beach treks. Further inland the Otways provide extensive forest walks and waterfalls.
